He has always struck people out... He was doing good at the beginning of last year, I traded him just in time before he started exploding. I don't think you should trade Lowe or someone like him for Odalis.

He was ranked 12th for pitchers in fantasy baseball index b4 the year started. He's always been above average in strikeouts, we've seen what his potential is in 2002...LA is better than last year, I think he's worth trading for

now might not be the best time to go after him coming off his great outing earlier in the week, but i agree he is a decent guy to acquire if the price is reasonable. he will eat up innings and won't KILL your WHIP or ERA... being in LA's pitcher-friendly park is also a plus.

The only caveat with this guy, is when he doesn't have his stuff, or loses his concentration.....his BAD is worse than a lot of other guys BAd. He's hittable, he walks guys...hangs stuff.......but when he is on....his the nastiest.....He even got bonds out TWICE!
